Hegemony

[Icuownage]

My bad Dusty :(.

 

I guess Grim will become the hegemony "America" having a budget many many times higher than the rest of the world, but he wont be a total [bleep] hopefully and act as the world police.

[Nero]

Nobody forced anyone to choose the countries they did. Franco-Germany is huge budget wise, but so was America & China.

 

And nw Icu

Energy=mass, you need to learn some physics. If you have i.e. a hollow sphere with a perfect mirror inside and put it on a scale it would show that it weights more with light inside. Just like a warm sphere would weight more than a cold one. However, the difference is negligible.

 

Hmmm, I was gonna post about Bosons and Baryons, quantum states and such...but I figured it would be easier to just say no mass....

[Icuownage]

Well lets hope balance will prevail soon enough, I wont stand as the under dog forever.

[Nero]

For christ's sake, I picked Greece as my starting country, you had INDIA.

[Icuownage]

It may SEEM that I had a better choice, but already being surrounded by non NPC countries, is a serious disadvantage, though I should have expanded earlier.

 

I admit your much better at this game than I, and you knew what you had to do, which was expand like a crazy mofo, which you did and then you got powerful allies, so good game to you Dusty :P.

[Retech]

I believe that Photons do not have mass. Or at least the concept of mass that we are currently using. Just because it can be changed into mass doesn't mean that it has mass, even if energy = mass.

Grim, may I please have the North American land back? Not the IAG, but just the land?

[Grim_]

Sorry retech it would be better to ask doom that question. Hey dusty would you be willing to do me a favor? I am working on the space elevator and if you could aid me (or possibly give back the loans that if I remember correctly amounted to close to a trilllion [let me double check that] in donations to the space elevator I would be very much obliged [like not doing the nuclear revolution obliged])

Nah you were surrounded by NPCs. Burma, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Nepal, Tibet, all the way down into the Pacific.

 

But yea, the first stages of the game are always stuff yourself fat on NPC countries until there's none left. Lol, I blitzed down into the Middle East to prevent Rocco from expanding that way.

The ERE pledges its support for the elevator. I gotta wait 'till next decade to pay you back though (and Paul/Doom get their money first since they have less to work with).

[Icuownage]

Pakistan and Afghanistan were Ross's.

 

The rest of the countries were poor and would of made NO difference.

Does Doom control the land now?

[Nero]

They add up. I took Qatar, Kuwait, Albania, and a bunch of minor countries. Alone they make little difference, but combined it's like +150b IAG.

[Icuownage]

Those three I think added up to around 60 billion

 

Also can someone pledge support for me on my space elevator, looking at Grim, Retech, Rocco, Sere, Snubbe.

 

Doom and Dusty will never aid me. Though they're welcome too.

If you by 'the concept of mass that we are currently using' mean rest mass then you're right. I think this link explains it pretty well.

 

EDIT: Icu, I said a long time ago that I would help you with the space elevator.

If support means monetary assistance, then that will have to wait till I control North America once again. If you mean the kind of support where I just say I'm helping but not really do anything, then I'll help. That is, if Dusty or Doom have no objections.

[Grim_]

No retech but doom would probably be more apt to give up land (It is of strategic significance to keep that land [read I promised sere I would not give it away])

[Retech]

Well Sere told me to talk to you, which is why I'm talking to you. You have plenty of land, and you know that the east coast is more important to me than to you.

Only place I would be willing to trade it for is the west coast :P

[Icuownage]

Grim did you see my proposal for the land in Asia?

 

Also care to aid me in my space elevator :D?

Sorry about that but I would rather not (Call me paranoid but I like to have a failsafe at all times)

-Rage-

 

I'm finding it very surprising that Dusty would be more willing to help than you are, especially since he was the one who also nuked me.

Retech you do remember that I gave up almost all of my land in the US to you right?

[Retech]

I thought that was Dusty? Either way, I am not asking for the IAG, but for the land, which if you recall, would've been unavailable had I been able to stay in the Hegemony. Returning land is not a super gracious favor; it is fixing what was broken.

 

(Note that I'm not ungrateful, though it might sound like it)

[Icuownage]

Yeah, you guys getting that land in the first place was unfair to the rest of the game, by the time anyone could reply most of it was gone, I'm not saying its cause we weren't quick enough, but the time it actally happened was rather late and I'd rather be in bed.

 

@Grim, sigh... Your all up in our [wagon] if we set foot into Europe, but you LOVE to ravage Asia.

What can I say I'm a hypocrite and a European power :P (Keep in mind I got almost all of this land by ripping hex a new one)
